What's the Challenge range?

One source for the components that keep your drives running.

From sprockets and pulleys to bearings, couplings, chains and gear units, Challenge brings together the full range of mechanical power transmission products under one name. Every component is manufactured to ISO, BS and DIN standards and interchangeable with other leading manufacturers, so you can specify with confidence and source with ease.

Everything your drive system needs, in onerange

Challenge is built to cover the full mechanical transmission chain, so you’re not sourcing components from five different suppliers:

Sprockets, pulleys and bearings manufactured to exacting tolerances

Bearing units with triple-lipped seals fitted as standard

Roller, leaf, agricultural and conveyor chains built for long service life

Worm gear units and SMSRs that keep conveyors running, fully interchangeable with other manufacturers

Built to standard

Every product complies with ISO, BS, DIN and other international standards, so specification and replacement are straightforward.

Interchangeable by design

Challenge SMSRs, chains and bearings are manufactured to be drop-in compatible with other leading brands.

Engineered for durability

Triple-sealed bearing units, galvanised motor mounts and life-optimised chains are designed to reduce downtime, not cause it.

One range, full coverage

From the smallest bearing to a complete shaft mounted speed reducer, Challenge covers the drive train end to end.
